Name        : dracut
Product     : Fedora 22
Version     : 041
Release     : 15.fc22
URL         : https://dracut.wiki.kernel.org/
Summary     : Initramfs generator using udev
Description :
dracut contains tools to create a bootable initramfs for 2.6 Linux kernels.
Unlike existing implementations, dracut does hard-code as little as possible
into the initramfs. dracut contains various modules which are driven by the
event-based udev. Having root on MD, DM, LVM2, LUKS is supported as well as
NFS, iSCSI, NBD, FCoE with the dracut-network package.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update adds early microcode loading to the initramfs again. With 4.4
kernels the dracut check for this feature broke. dracut now just checks for
microcode support, which will add microcode again for newer kernels. After
updating you will have to run:      # dracut --force  to update your current 4.4
initramfs.
